Abstract
A mirror surface adjustment actuator according to the present invention includes a housing front member for accommodating a dual axis motor as a driving part, a worm gear as an extending/contracting part, or the like; a mirror holder on which a side mirror is fixed; and a housing rear member for supporting the mirror holder which is freely inclinable. The dual axis motor includes a motor body, two rotary axes, and three male terminals. A method for manufacturing the mirror surface control actuator is also provided.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 : A mirror surface adjustment actuator comprising:
a housing; a freely inclinable mirror holder provided in the housing; two extending/contracting parts interposed between the housing and the mirror holder; and a driving part provided in the housing for extending and contracting the two extending/contracting parts, wherein the driving part comprises a dual axis motor in whose motor body there are two rotary axes.
2 : The mirror surface adjustment actuator according to claim 1 ,
wherein the dual axis motor has three terminals; and one of the three terminals is shared by the two rotary axes.
3 : A method for manufacturing the mirror surface adjustment actuator according to claim 1 comprising:
a dual axis motor grasping step of grasping the dual axis motor with a robot hand; and a dual axis motor mounting step of mounting the dual axis motor in the housing, with the robot hand.
4 : A mirror surface adjustment actuator comprising:
a housing; a freely inclinable mirror holder provided in the housing; two extending/contracting parts interposed between the housing and the mirror holder; and a driving part provided in the housing for extending and contracting the two extending/contracting parts, wherein the driving part comprises two single axis motors in each of whose motor body there is one rotary axis, and which are joined to each other.
5 : The mirror surface adjustment actuator according to claim 4 ,
wherein each motor body of the two single axis motors has two flat surfaces parallel to each other, and the two motors are joined to each other with a flat surface of one motor in contact with a flat surface of the other.
6 : The method for manufacturing the mirror surface adjustment actuator according to claim 4 comprising:
a single axis motors joining step of joining the two single axis motors to each other; a single axis motors grasping step of grasping the two single axis motors joined to each other in the single axis motors joining step, with a robot hand; and a single axis motors mounting step of mounting a couple of the joined single axis motors in the housing, with the robot hand.
7 : A method for manufacturing the mirror surface adjustment actuator according to claim 5 comprising:
a single axis motors joining step of joining the two single axis motors to each other with a flat surface of one motor in contact with a flat surface of the other; a single axis motors grasping step of grasping a flat surface of one motor body and a flat surface of the other motor body, which are not in contact with each other, of the two single axis motors joined to each other in the single axis motors joining step, with a robot hand; and a single axis motors mounting step of mounting a couple of the joined single axis motors in the direction in which the flat surfaces are perpendicular to the housing, with the robot hand.
8 : A method for manufacturing the mirror surface adjustment actuator according to claim 2 comprising:
a dual axis motor grasping step of grasping the dual axis motor with a robot hand; and a dual axis motor mounting step of mounting the dual axis motor in the housing, with the robot hand.
9 : The method for manufacturing the mirror surface adjustment actuator according to claim 5 comprising:
a single axis motors joining step of joining the two single axis motors to each other; a single axis motors grasping step of grasping the two single axis motors joined to each other in the single axis motors joining step, with a robot hand; and a single axis motors mounting step of mounting a couple of the joined single axis motors in the housing, with the robot hand.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
